Mars

CCD vs Film? Lots of time vs no patience? Alright, this is your place to discuss all the astrophotography what's and what's not. You can discuss about techniques, accessories, cameras, whatever....just make sure you also post some nice photos here too!

Nice attempt (first?). Blurry. Keep trying and improve focusing. Try lower magnification in return for contrast and detail.

Yes Gary. This is my 1st attempt at imaging Mars. Somehow, it doesn't show any detail at all. Maybe like you mentioned, it's not focus properly at all and also could be due to my settings. When I look at Mars through my eyepiece, I do see details though :P Anyway, will try again some time.
